Two extra time goals at Ewood Park put Newcastle through to face Watford back at St James' in the fourth round.
Longstaff and Roberts gave the visitors an early lead, before Armstrong and Lenihan levelled it at 2-2.
It stayed that way until extra time when the Spanish duo for Newcastle struck, as Joselu and Perez gave the Premier League side the win.
Spanish striker Joselu appeared to be slightly offside for the goal that made it 3-2, as he reacted quickest after Blackburn keeper David Raya had spilled Fabian Schar's long-range shot.Newcastle's win was their first in seven games in all competitions, since a 1-0 Premier League victory at Huddersfield on 15 December.

Portsmouth v QPR

Crystal Palace v Tottenham Hotspur
Chelsea v Sheffield Wednesday
Barnet v Brentford
I think the one fixture to keep an eye on is the first of the weekend which sees the joint record holders for FA Cup wins go head to head.
Arsenal against Manchester United could have conceivably been the final, and all the other sides will be thankful to see these heavyweights of Cup folklore do battle against each other at the fourth round stage.
The two sides (at the time of writing) are level on points in the Premier League, but have had contrasting seasons.
The Gunners went 20 games unbeaten, while United had their worst ever start to a Premier League season, but have since won six in a row under caretaker boss Ole Gunnar Solskjær.
Both sides' defences have been questioned this season, but the attacks have been simply stunning at times, so I think this match will have goals aplenty.
Newport County stunned Leicester City in the third round, and looking for another upset, they travel to the Riverside to face Tony Pulis' Middlesbrough of the Championship.
Sheffield Wednesday will play Chelsea at Stamford Bridge for the first time since they were last in the Premier League in 2000.
After a hard fought win in the replay, the Owls will be full of confidence against a Chelsea side which hasn't always looked convincing this season.
